  (Beaucastel Chateauneuf-du-Pape Roussanne "Vieilles Vignes") This was interesting but ultimately too low in acidity for me to enjoy. I mean there was like zero acidity on this wine. Flavors were tropical and there were some interesting mineral notes but ultimately (sorry Jacques) this was the flabbiest wine I have ever had. Like a Picasso without a frame. Very interesting material but it falls way flat.
